RRP5 [YMR229C]
U3 small nucleolar RNA-associated protein RRP5; RNA binding protein involved in synthesis of 18S and 5.8S rRNAs; component of ribosomal small subunit (SSU) processome and 90S preribosome; required for pre-rRNA packaging and compaction of processome into dense terminal balls; part of Mak21p-Noc2p-Rrp5p module that associates with nascent pre-rRNA during transcription with role in biogenesis of large ribosomal subunit; binds single stranded tracts of U's; relocalizes from nucleolus to nucleus upon DNA replication stress
Synonyms: RRP5, RRP5p, Q05022, FMI1, Q05022p ...
